Tough topic. I feel torn as well but at the end of the day I would want him to look like his dad and from a grown women's point of view who has been with both kinds of men I (for his furture wife's sake) would want him to be. It's just nicer IMO.

definitely not, after learning there are zero benefits plus the obvious fact that we aren't born with parts we aren't supposed to have. hubby is circumcised and I'd never seen one not, but after seeing photos during my reading I now think the mutilated ones are just ridiculous looking compared to real ones. not that I would choose whether to cut my kid or not based on looks!

I did with both my sons my bd isnt and his mom was against it but my family all was and would be against not... My bd was the one who said yes to circ with my first my 2nd didnt get circ till he was 11 mos old cause he had a blood clotting problem when he was born they did it in a hospital he was put to sleep durring and got pain meds after recovery was fine no crying no pain want to get this lo done too fl medicaid doesnt pay for it though so I gotta start saving

We had DS circumcised and will circumcise any future boys we have, too. The comments that there are absolutely no benefits of circumcision are incorrect. While ultimately, cost versus benefit is pretty even when it comes to circumcision or non circumcision, the AAP has actually officially slightly recommended it due to the minor benefits of it.

Anyway, in my experience, the procedure was no big deal. DS didn't cry at all during it, and DH and I watched the whole time. The aftercare was very easy, and we never had any problems or complications. It really was a very simple process both to have it done and to take care of it as it healed.

However, it's a personal decision; I would recommend doing you OWN research, rather than relying on the information you will receive on here, which will likely include very biased opinions from both sides.
